Morning Glory, written by Noel Gallagher, performed by Oasis
Song can be found on the album "(What's The Story) Morning Glory?".
This transcription based on (but different from) the one found in the
"official" guitar tab book for the album "(WTS)MG?".
Chords used:
EADGBe
Em (022000)
D (xx0232)
D5 (xx023x)
A7sus4 (x02030)
Cadd9 (x32030)
Dsus2 (xx0230)
B (x24442)
Tab for Intro:
Here's that little part before the chords start:
b=bend (3b5 means bend string at 3rd fret to make note of 5th fret)
e-------------
B--3-3-3-3b5-- (just repeat this a bunch of times)
G-------------
Okay, now here the tab for the little riff that is played throughout all
the verses and the part of the chorus when the chords change from "Em" to
"D".
Here's how the official book has it tabbed:
EmD5EmD5
e----------------------------------------
B-----------------3-------------------3--
G-----------------2-------------------2--
D-----2-----------0-------2-----------0--
A-----2-----0--2----------2-----0--2-----
E--0-----3-------------0-----3-----------
But if you listen to the song (even though it's tough to hear it through
all that other noise) I think the main riff sounds more like this:
EmD5EmD5
e----------------------------------------
B-----------------3-------------------3--
G-----------------2-------------------2--
D-----2-----------0-------2-----------0--
A-----2--------0----------2--------0-----
E--0-----0--3----------0-----0--3--------
Anyways, I could be wrong, but try it out and let me know what you think!
